About Citylitics

Citylitics delivers predictive intelligence on U.S. utility & public infrastructure markets.

What is Infrastructure? It is the roadways you rely on to safely get to Grandma's house, it's the potable water that comes out of your kitchen tap that you wash your family's food with and it's the energy that heats our homes and powers our digital lifestyles.

Every year, trillions of dollars are spent in the U.S. on public infrastructure to maintain our quality of life and move our economy forward. However, our infrastructure is no longer equipped to meet the needs of the future. We hear about U.S. infrastructure failures, whether it be bridge collapses, power blackouts, or water main breaks, every day in the news. Climate change and extreme weather events are disrupting the core U.S. infrastructure we take for granted.

The need has been so great that bipartisan efforts at the federal level have passed the Infrastructure Investment & Jobs Act (IIJA) and other legislation to accelerate spending to this aging infrastructure. Most importantly, our infrastructure plays a vital role in our national security and the ability for us to project and insulate our American way of life from threats, foreign and domestic.

Citylitics is solving the hardest data problems in infrastructure while building the sales intelligence platform that enables a faster, more transparent, and more efficient infrastructure marketplace. We turn millions of unstructured documents into high value intelligence feeds and datasets that are available on an intuitive user experience. Our goal is to enable solution providers (Civic Engineers, Manufacturers, Construction Companies) to connect with cities and their relevant infrastructure needs in a faster and more digital way than historic market channels. As even more of the leading U.S. Infrastructure companies adopt our platform, cities & utilities will be able to access newer, smarter infrastructure solutions that deliver on the promise of moving towards a more resilient, sustainable, and equitable future.
